Cotton, wool, hemp and linen for curtains, cushions and upholstery, including Fibre Naturelle. Compare fibre, weave and dye in Lymington, then we check lining and whether the cloth suits the seat or window.
Organic cotton canvases, undyed wools and hemp blends are typically oatmeal, stone or plant-dyed. We discuss which cloths need lining to stop sagging, how wool recovers on dining chairs, and when a hemp blend holds shape better than pure linen in a kitchen.


These fibres suit bedrooms and sitting rooms with moderate sun; unlined cloth on south-facing glass can sag or fade. For upholstery we match weave density to use. A loose weave may not last on a dining chair used every day. Borrow samples before you order.
Visit to feel the difference between blends and pure fibres, then decide lining and making.
